Space Saving Bike Lift

Cyble is a interactive bicycle rack that focuses on spatial savings to secure bikes in public spaces. Users manually push their front wheel into the keyed locking mechanism where it is clamped in place. After being secured, Cyble automatically lifts the bike vertically, keeping it out of harms way and out of the reach of thieves while also saving horizontal space.

Slide-phone Inspired Faucets

The Reece Slide Tap is a different take on the typical slider phone; it is a faucet that uses the innovation of touch-pads to the fullest. You can turn on the tap by simply sliding the top and control the temperature via the touchpad on the handle. You can preset the temperature, thus eliminating wastage.

There are three parts on the top of the tap: two touchpads for controlling water and temperature and one screen that shows the temperature. Slide is a 2013 Bathroom Innovation Award finalist.

A Chair We’d Like to Nom Nom

As you might guess by the name, the Candy Chair was inspired by designer Jeong Yong’s insatiable sweet tooth! Shapes taken from his sugary favorites give it a soft, inviting aesthetic. It’s probably a good thing it’s not actually edible… because it looks deliciously lemon in bright yellow.

Even a Toilet Can Be Cute

Old-school “water-closets” (those toilets with the reservoir mounted on the wall, suspended above the bowl) use gravity to force water into the bowl. While effective, they aren’t around much anymore because of the huge amount of space they require. The satirically-named Element Water Closet  applies entirely different physics to achieve the same amount of flushing power but with less water and while occupying even smaller space than conventional bowl toilets.  See how it works—>

Using a built-in elastic bladder system, water from the main pipeline enters and expands the bladder with its normal pressure. A release valve prevents the water from escaping the bladder. Once the release valve is opened, the pressured water in the bladder is automatically released into the bowl. Because this water is under pressure, there is no restriction as to the placement of the bladder, making the design as compact as possible!

Designer: David Hashimoto

More than just a bucket…

In a surprising merging of products, the Solar Energy Bucket serves as a multifunctional tool for anyone who likes to rough it. At first glance it appears to be a simple water bucket, but turn it upside down and you’ll see a small solar panel which harnesses the sun’s energy during the day. The stored energy can then be used to power the built-in light or even gently heat the water. Peculiar… but genius!
